Abstract
Bhagobangola I block's garden soil, which contained arsenic, produced a heavy metal hypertolerant bacterium that encouraged plant growth (Murshidabad district). The bacterial isolate was classified as a member of the genus Microbacterium by metagenomic analysis. The isolated strain's maximum average nucleotide identity (89.99%) with the Microbacterium paraoxydans strain DSM 15019 was discovered through taxonomic analysis. Prokka, DFAST, and RAST were used to annotate bacterial genomes. The genome's total base count was 3365911, with 69.90% GC. In the bacterial genome, Prokka found 3216 coding sequences (including 1461 hypothetical sequences), 3283 genes, 10 miscellaneous RNAs, 3 rRNAs, 53 tRNAs, and 1 tmRNA. In the bacterial genome, DFAST found 3257 coding sequences (1217 hypothetical sequences), 3 rRNA sequences, and 53 tRNA sequences.
